Memory Foam

What is Memory Foam?

Memory foam is a polyurethane foam with heat-activated molecules that soften with your body and compress under your weight.

It forms the tightest fit against your body and relieves pressure, making it a fantastic comfort layer (the bit above the support system) in any mattress.

Different Types Of Memory Foam

Memory foam comes in three main varieties, each offering distinct benefits. Traditional closed-cell memory foam provides the classic contouring feel but can retain heat.

Open-cell memory foam features an enhanced structure with larger air pockets, improving breathability and cooling.

Memory gel foam, the latest innovation, incorporates cooling gel particles or strands throughout the material, actively drawing heat away from your body while maintaining the foam's supportive properties.

You can also get memory foam mattresses with or without springs — hybrids and pocket spring mattresses, for instance, can use memory foam.

How A Memory Foam Mattress Feels

Lying on a memory foam mattress creates an unmistakable sensation of gentle envelopment.

As your body heat softens the foam, you'll notice a gradual sinking feeling, most pronounced at pressure points like your shoulders and hips. The foam maintains its new shape briefly before slowly recovering, creating a consistent sleep surface that follows your movements.

This responsiveness means you're always supported, whether a back, side, or stomach sleeper, with the foam adapting to each position change.
